April 2, 2007 Alan Cooke

If you have been hiding under a rock for the last few weeks, you might have missed the AppleTV launch. To much dismay, it turned out to be a bit of a dud. However, for a bit more you can have a full featured Mac Media Center. We, of course, are talking about the mini. The little brother of the […]

HP Exits Media Center Business, Drops DEC Line

March 27, 2007 Mike Garcen

I always thought of HP as one of Microsoft's biggest partners, so seeing this news is pretty surprising. I remember when the original Media Center was released, and theirs was basically the poster child of the MCE's. And even since then, HP's been pretty aggressive with trying unique things, and I guess that's continuing, just completely separate from Microsoft (and […]

March 22, 2007 Alan Cooke

Dell XPS 410 with ATI TV Wonder Digital Cable Tuner

March 16, 2007 Alan Cooke

PCMag, those lucky bastards, have gotten their hands on a Dell XPS410 with a TV Wonder Digital Cable Tuner. I am not sure why Dell chose to ship out a tower system with a TV tuner when most people would want it for livingroom use. Reading through the review, Dell said they would arrange a date with the Cable Company […]

The [H] continues their stellar evaluation program with a look at the Shuttle X200 mini-HTPC.

AVADirect Custom HTPC

March 8, 2007 Mike Garcen

$2600 is a lot of money to spend, but [H] Consumer has a lot of good things to say about AVADirect. I don't know though, personally, if I spent $2600 I'd be looking for a system with a little more than only 224gb, and 1 tuner.
